i really don't understand people of this day and age for people who's cams are black you need to go to tweaks and turn on a setting...

All you guys had to do was read but no we all want to jump conclusion before reading anything all you guys want is to want something so bad, but yet forget the simple rule of read and i will be fine...

On droiddrx's thread he mentions this line here....

Added support for devices that needs preview surface (like LG O3D). Make sure you check the "Use Preview Surface" option on the Tweaks screen and use it only if you have the blank screen issue. Confirmed workiing on Motorola Defy too. Archos users, try this one too.

anyway whatever enjoy make sure you read this before you post an angry mob letter to me because i won't give a rats ass as i know a majority of us won't read before posting. Most likely if you get offended you haven't read you let your balls take over sigh.....
[LG Optimus 3D] walidbang:
Doesn't work for me ;) with this method.
[LG Optimus 3D] droidrx:
Is the FFC detected in the Tweaks screen? If not, tap the Claim FFC to email me the detection log.

i have a problem when somebody cals me in skype,it has a very low volume ringtone any idea ?
[LG Optimus 3D] walidbang:
dont know exactly where i can see it, sorry. just tell me, and i am gonna send you
[LG Optimus 3D] mmace:
Is there any way to make it sign in when the phone reboots?

Mine never does but the wife's (downloaded from market on xperia mini pro) does every time
[LG Optimus 3D] droidrx:
That feature was removed in the moded skype as most users don't want it to run on startup. I'll add the option to enable it on the next build.
[LG Optimus 3D] Kusie:
Same here :( With LG Optimus Black ...

and Skype 2.x does not have any ringtone selection or ringer volume control ... it really sucks.
[LG Optimus 3D] walidbang:
Doesnt work for me, can anybody, on which rom he is??
[LG Optimus 3D] Stevy:
Thanks a lot very useful work.
[LG Optimus 3D] malickie:
Truthfully given a month or so whenever GB get's released all this tweaking will become semi sorta pointless. Granted I suppose I can understand not wanting to wait,
[LG Optimus 3D] Stevy:
But until then, this is the only way to use the front cam for Skype.

So it's really useful.
[LG Optimus 3D] droidrx:
There are actually 2 issues with the market version of skype on LGO3D. First is the lack of FFC support on 2.2 and second is the lack of preview surface w/c the camera driver needs. Unless the 2.3 update allows NULL preview surface or the market version of skype is updated to add a preview surface, the video call feature on the market skype won't work (blank screen).
[LG Optimus 3D] djkalabadal:
Yeah I'm waiting too for that 2.3 update..
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] fifasarajevo:
1st is im running Synergy rc2 + gmode and i cant find the HTC Hub app anywhere

edit- i found the apk in the apps folder but after installing it nothing loads on it and i get the HTC Hub sync has stopped working...i was wondering is there any way to fix this?

2nd question is would you recommend any other kernel over the stock one...im not big on trying and experimenting with kernels as i dont really know much and i see all these new ones being released.....so essentially is there anything better than the stock one that comes with the rom.

so if anyone has these answers please let me know :)

I am having the same problem with HTCHub as well. I havent seen or heard of a solution. One thing I can think of is maybe load a rom where it works, and then do a TB of the app, and the sync settings?
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jd_dinc:
Does anybody know how to get the HTC incredible into the 'phone programming ' mode when on the Synergy ROM? Normal ##program does not work, and *#*#6463... Does, but that does not let me get at things like call quality or login settings for 3G. I know how it works on an non-rooted incredible. I am using the dial app that is standard for Synergy ROM.

[Xoom Themes and Apps] Indirect:
Alright, I modded the desc.txt so it should work on the Xoom. Just let me know how it goes or if it needs resized. This isn't my boot animation, I simply modded the des.txt for it to be the correct resolution (I haven't even bought my xoom yet. lol)

same as this

it would be awesome to get an autobot one.
[Xoom Themes and Apps] IndivisibleP:
I am running gingerbread on my hd2 off the SD card. Could I possibly use this boot animation on that device? Any problems with resolution or whether it will even work or not?

If it is possible do I just rename the file "bootanimation.zip" and paste it over the original one in system/media/...

Please let me know. This animation is awesome ;)
[Xoom Themes and Apps] Indirect:
You should be able too, I think the original desc.txt would work better, just add your resolution in desc.txt and replace the first 2 numbers.
[Xoom Themes and Apps] IndivisibleP:
Thanks, but no need. I actually already found the original online and gave it shot. Worked fine. Thanks for the post btw. I like this animation.
[HTC EVO 3D] itc518:
Im just looking for a bit of help if anyone that knows what they are doing has a few minutes to spare. I have this boot animation I used on my OG Evo and I really want to use it on my Evo 3D. I loaded it on but it dont fill out the whole screen so I am trying to find someone that can fix it so it fits the whole screen. I also want to know if I can add music with it, and if you can add music how do you do it? I tried placing an MP3 in the folder when I flashed the bootloader but it didnt take. This is the boot animation below though, it is the Apple Sucks one so I am sure others would be interested in it as well. Thank you in advance for any help!

Boot Animation - http://dl.dropbox.com/u/3793919/applesucks-bootanimation.zip

MP3 I want to use if anyone knows how to add it - http://dl.dropbox.com/u/3793919/04-How will I Laugh Tomorrow.mp3
[HTC EVO 3D] dased14:
you can try this fix should play full screen(i fixed the size and also optimize the pngs to make the file smaller) as for audio try changing the mp3 to android_audio and put it where your bootanimation goes. this is not flashable must use root explorer or adb.unzip applesucks zip(the bootanimation is inside ready to use)
[HTC EVO 3D] itc518:
Awesome man, thank you very much, I appreciate it. Downloading now and then adding via root explorer.
[HTC EVO 3D] TimidRat:
Iv'e been waiting to find someone like you dased! Any way you could do one for me? I want the bios looking one here if that's possible, please and thanks! Oh, and i dont care for any sound if that makes it easier, thanks! :)

[HTC EVO 3D] dased14:
yep i found it and i will make it work for you give me a bit to fix it up.
[HTC EVO 3D] TimidRat:
Cool! Thanks! I'm gonna be refreshing this page every minure now lol!
[HTC EVO 3D] dased14:
here you go. remove from the bios.zip and use adb or root explorer to install

i fixed the size and the desc(didnt mess with the speed let me know if it plays ok) enjoy
[HTC EVO 3D] TimidRat:
Thanks a lot dude, where am i pushing this too? I forgot :(
[HTC EVO 3D] dased14:
what rom you using
[HTC EVO 3D] TimidRat:
Bloody beast, i think it's /system/custpmize/resource/ condsidering theres a file with the same name in there, i'll try, thanks dude.
[HTC EVO 3D] TimidRat:
Alright, i got it working, it runs a little fast, is that an easy fix? Thanks again!
[HTC EVO 3D] dased14:
let me edit something(reboot it just to make sure, cause sometimes it settles down after 2x) try this one after reboot if it is still to fast for you
[HTC EVO 3D] TimidRat:
I tried rebooting a couple times but it was still quick, i'm gonna try this one now, thanks so much for all your help!

EDIT: Okay this one is much better, thank you, how did you edit the speed, is it a simple fix?
[HTC EVO 3D] dased14:
not to hard, there's a number in the desc that you change(multiples of 5 only)

looks something like this

540 960 5 <----controls speed

p 1 0 part0

p 0 0 part1

i didnt have to unzip it or anything
[HTC EVO 3D] TimidRat:
EDIT: i looked at the two you posted, so to slow it down i would have to change it to 0, is 0 an acceptable value for it?
[HTC EVO 3D] dased14:
No 5 is probably as low as it goes(thats 5 frames a second). dvds,youtube,etc. play at 24 to 30 fps(really like 29.375)

0fps would be a splash screen lol

Thanks dased14, I think I'm gonna go with a Ao No Exorcist boot animation.

I think the blue flames would look nice as a boot screen
[HTC EVO 3D] ckombo:
Hey Dased,

I've been trying to make my own bootanimation for a while now with no success. I was hoping maybe you could help me out. I've got the files all converted to png and placed in sequence. I've tried putting them in the part0 and part1 folders, and then zipping up with the desc file, but no luck. Not sure what I'm doing wrong.

Mind helping me out?

I've attached the png's needed for the animation.
[HTC EVO 3D] dased14:
Yeah, i'll take a look at it when I get home

brought to you by the little voices in my head
[HTC EVO 3D] ckombo:
Thank you much
[HTC EVO 3D] dased14:
i dl'ed that zip and the only thing in it is part0 is that all you have for it. cause your missing the desc and the part1 you mentioned (if thats all the animations i think i can make up a desc and get it working for you)
[HTC EVO 3D] ckombo:
The part1 folder I used just had more of the same images from the end of part0. The desc file I was using came from one of yours that I downloaded.

It had this text:

540 960 5

p 1 0 part0

p 0 0 part1

I uploaded the entire sequence in that zip. Not sure how the part0 and part1 folders work.
[HTC EVO 3D] dased14:
So you want whats in part0 to run on a loop until phone boots up? Cause if not you will be looking at that last pic until it does. like i said it only had part0, and it was over 7mb let me grab it from op of it and have a looky see.

Brought to you by the little voices in my head
[HTC EVO 3D] ckombo:
I don't want a loop, I guess I would want it to land on the attached picture if it takes longer to boot. (this is the picture I originally had in the part1 folder when I tried to set it up myself).
[HTC EVO 3D] dased14:
thats no problem,

try this take it out of the jamesbond .zip and place bootanimation where it goes using adb or root explorer and let me know how it works(yes it does,no it doesnt, to slow or any problems)
[HTC EVO 3D] ckombo:
Dude! Thank you! How would I slow it down? Increase or decrease from the 5?
[HTC EVO 3D] dased14:
Yes, it goes by 5's . so it works and it was what you was wanting i take it.
[HTC EVO 3D] ckombo:
Yes, works great. I'd like to slow it down though. Is 5 fps the slowest it can go? I know that 0 would make it a splash screen. (from reading the earlier posts)

I noticed you converted the png's to jpg's and significantly reduced the file sizes. I wonder if it wasn't working for me due to the large file size of the bootanimation.zip

Thank you for your help. Much appreciated.
[HTC EVO 3D] dased14:
I believe 5 is the lowest and no it wasnt the file size(i made a portal2 that is like 30mb,in 3d forum somewhere) I think(sometimes brain doesnt work.) That your pngs had a weird size to them. I use jpegs and half size just for space. and for some reason i think they have to be at least 5 characters(00000, ect)

Brought to you by the little voices in my head
[HTC EVO 3D] ckombo:
Ok. Thanks for all your help and advice. I'll try and mess around with some other bootanimations and post them up here if I can get them working.

Cheers bro.

I'm cutting the mkv now.. What do I turn it into a gif? & then slice it?

I've got vid trim pro btw... so I could just grab animation in frames
[HTC EVO 3D] dased14:
I turn it in to a mp4 and from there I extract all the frames and then crop,resize(in most I do I turn 90° and make landscape) and make the jpegs(can use pngs) then its on to making the folders and the desc and zip it up

[HTC EVO 3D] dased14:

[HTC EVO 3D] Krairo:
What dimensions do you use? Its converting into a mp4 right now.

I'm going to trim it on my phone after its done converting.

Could I send you the trimmed mp4 & you crop and rotate it? I have no idea how to rotate it except by putting the images on windows & hitting rotate lol.

I just want a loop =)
[HTC EVO 3D] dased14:
Sure send me the clip or frames(in order if frames please) and i'll work it together.

My rice krispies told me what to say
[HTC EVO 3D] Krairo:
Ok here's the clip. http://www.mediafire.com/?yic8n1wa8cav98e

How long can it be?

If its just right can he slash the clock then you loop when he's engulfed in fire for the remainder of the boot process? If not just him engulfed & when the camera focuses on his eyes would be an awesome boot.
[HTC EVO 3D] dased14:
ok,let me see what i can do
[HTC EVO 3D] Krairo:
ok .
[HTC EVO 3D] dased14:
is there a way that i can get the a clip made with 960x720(if your using windows movie make pick the one for zune(720) that clip will look stretched and i will have to loop the dude in the flames for filler.
[HTC EVO 3D] Krairo:
here you go http://www.mediafire.com/?6kqk3wzaczj6hun
[HTC EVO 3D] dased14:
cool, that ones much better. give me a bit
[HTC EVO 3D] Krairo:
ok, btw I've rooted my phone & I can browse any directory with astro... So I don't think I'll need root explorer
[HTC EVO 3D] Krairo:
any progress?
[HTC EVO 3D] dased14:
It's in the editing room now but I'm out for a few hours(daughters soccer practice) i'll get back on it a little later

now the voices are in 3d
[HTC EVO 3D] Krairo:
Okay, thank you.
[HTC EVO 3D] dased14:
are you using bootscoot or is your bootanimation in /system/customize/resource still.
[HTC EVO 3D] Krairo:
Everything is still default. All I've done is root my phone.
[HTC EVO 3D] dased14:
here is a zip should be able to be able to flash in recovery(wipe cahce and dalvik 2x) or you can un zip it and take out the Sprint_bootanimation and install using root explorer

http://www.megaupload.com/?d=BXBAJPDJ
[HTC EVO 3D] Krairo:
Thank you dazed, I love it! Works perfectly =)

How do I change the boot audio btw?

Nvm I just found it. I'll try switching the mp3

BoxedDreams... its coming
[HTC EVO 3D] dased14:
so did you flash it or use root explorer
[HTC EVO 3D] Krairo:
I used root explorer. I just tried replacing the audio with a trimmed mp3 but its not working so far.

BoxedDreams... its coming
[HTC EVO 3D] dased14:
you can use root explorer to go to system/customize/cid/default.xml(line 168) looks like this <BootAnimation animation="/system/customize/resource/Sprint_bootanimation.zip" />

and add this line audio="/system/customize/resource/android_audio.mp3" so that it looks like this <BootAnimation animation="/system/customize/resource/bootanimation.zip" audio="/system/customize/resource/android_audio.mp3" /> then you can add audio(has to be named android_audio.mp3) and after you do that when you flash a bootanimation through recovery(has to be/system/customize/resource) and it has audio it will play or you can add the mp3 using root explorer(if you would rather do it that way)

edit:: make sure that you have it set to write permissions and if you do this make sure that it saves (after saving back out and open that default.xml in CID agian just to check and be safe)
[HTC EVO 3D] Krairo:
Didn't work all it did was break my boot animation. Now it boots up with just android...

I put this on 168

<BootAnimation animation="/system/customize/resource/bootanimation.zip" audio="/system/customize/resource/android_audio.mp3" />

Here are my steps...

1st I got the boot you made working by replacing the boot.zip

2nd I copied the xml file onto my sd card to edit it on the pc using notepad++

3rd I replaced it & saw it wasn't working for me.
[HTC EVO 3D] dased14:
no edit the xml on your phone thats how i got it working. and you will have to use a nand back up to restore. sorry i guess i should have been clearer on where to edit from.

edit:: did that a couple times myself and had to use a nand to go back and try it again.
[HTC EVO 3D] Krairo:
Forget it then I'm not going through that today.

I'll just ask you for the instructions whenever I decide to.

I backed up my xml file so my new boot still works

BoxedDreams... its coming
[HTC EVO 3D] dased14:
sorry:(

you had a nand to use i hope to get it back

edit: sweet :) i would feel bad if you had to wipe and re-install your rom and stuff
[HTC EVO 3D] clutch_08:
I have a quick question do I have to erase the old boot animation and then put the one that im trying to use
[HTC EVO 3D] dased14:
it should overwrite it, but you can go and delete that zip first then move the other over.
[HTC EVO 3D] clutch_08:
When I try to paste it says " you can not paste here because the file system us read only". What am I doing wrong .. Never mind I figured it out
[HTC EVO 3D] dased14:
so your good?

Does anyone know if CM7 or stock android menu can be changed to white background like MIUI (pic 1) or iphone? Doesn't have to be as pretty with mixed gray and white exactly, just a simple white background instead of black for 2nd pic.

[T-Mobile LG G2x] LordButtersI:
UOT Kitchen cannot mod the color of the menu screen. It can change pretty much everything else, but not menu colors.

No reason you can open up FrameworkRes.apk and change it yourself though. That's all a dev would be doing. Changing more complicated things is hard (obviously) but simple graphic-related stuff is really, really easy.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] d11815:
I'm one of those stupid ppl that bought the g2x way back when it was supposed to work on all sorts of bands and what not. Anyways I didn't keep up with the developing story over the spring/summer, went to the UK right after I got it, and after multiple roms/settings and reading a lot, found out US t-mo g2x baseband version apparently doesnt work on 3 and orange 3g networks here (or at&t in the US if i remember correctly).

Anyways i still need internet on my phone. I use a google voice number and when connected to a wireless router here, I could call anyone in the US via google voice and t-mobile wifi calling. It was pretty great. Plus its what i use to check all my emails, pay my bills, etc etc, so internet on my phone is pretty necessary.

We recently switched to a mobile broadband internet provider (connects to computer via usb dongle, uses a sim card on the 3 network). There is no longer a wireless router here. however, both the mac and win 7 home premium machines we have here work fine for internet sharing for other devices doin an ad-hoc wireless setup.

My problem right now is that I cannot find a ROM/mod/config whatever for the g2x that supports both 1) wifi calling, and 2) adhoc wireless connectivity hack that together would allow me to make/receive US calls from the network here. I've tried to setup different programs on each comp that are supposed to broadcast infrastructure mode, but they havent worked right or didnt work on win 7, etc. Besides, I use adhoc networks a lot and want my phone to have ad hoc connectivity enabled.

For enabling adhoc wireless, I've looked at some of the wpa_supplicant patch types for other phones and over versions of android, but havent found any type of g2x/2.3.3 .zip that works universally or separately. several i haven't tried because i'm not sure how much it could/would mess up the g2x.

I'm currently on Xboarder's 2.3.3 OTA tweaked http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1158513 . As far as I can tell it currently doesnt support adhoc wireless networks. I don't mind moving to a rom with 2.3.4/5 or whatever so much, although I'd prefer to use something with the recent OTA, since they've been less buggy for me. I was doin the CM7 nightlies (having adhoc enabled) recently but also have serious APN problems with it which I imagine is tied to wifi calling not working for me with cm7.

Any questions or suggestions appreciated - I'm mainly just looking for a solid rom thing that supports 1) gapps, 2) wifi calling, and 3) wireless adhoc connectivity. anything else is superfluous at this point. also a working solution to establishing wireless adhoc connectivity on the g2x regardless of the ROM or not would be a dream (esp. after the OTA 2.3.3 update)...and as far as i could find not available.

Or, if someone has a good lead on getting reverse tethering or the baseband version updated to work in the UK (if possible), I'm all ears, but so far solutions in both of those directions have been difficult/impossible to track down.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] BarryH_GEG:
There's a thread dedicated to this in the SGS2 forum. Maybe some of what's discussed is transferable.

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1066102
[T-Mobile LG G2x] d11815:
one of the links provided in that thread included a how-to webpage for the galaxy S . the wpa_supplicant file provided there worked surprisingly (normally the wrong ones bootloop me). that is, replacing mine with that one worked on a g2x running xboarder's 2.3.3 ota for enabling adhoc wireless connectivity (as I am receiving internet connectivity over an adhoc network connection on my g2x).

however, wifi-calling/my account-device/ etc (t-mobile apps) are not working or not connecting, which issue i'll take up in the thread for the rom itself. the t-mobile APN is visible, which seems to be a positive thing.

also, the wpa_supplicant from the CM7 nightlies bootlooped it, although i guess might be expected to since the one i tried was from 2.3.4 or 2.3.5 i believe.

thanks for the help. think i'm one-step closer to re-establishing wifi calling here.

EDIT: wifi calling is working over the macbook pro adhoc network but not the windows 7 machine's network. the scope of the remaining issues seems to lie with windows 7 internet sharing and not the phone/rom. that is to say, the above wpa_supplicant file gives adhoc connectivity/wifi calling with at least one g2x 2.3.3 rom, and perhaps others. the general adhoc connectivity question comes up occasionally for different phones, and for 2.3.3 on the g2x it seems this is one solution.
